// IMPORTANT: RSA encryption is only used to encrypt small amounts of data.
// RSA is only able to encrypt data to a maximum amount of your key size (2048 bits = 256 bytes) 
// minus padding / header data (11 bytes for PKCS#1 v1.5 padding, 42 bytes for OAEP).
// As a result it is often not possible to encrypt files with RSA directly. 
// RSA is also not meant for this purpose. 
// 
// If you want to encrypt more data, you can use something like:
// 1) Generate a 256-bit random keystring K
// 2) Encrypt your data with AES-CBC with K
// 3) Encrypt K with RSA
// 4) Send both to the other side
